cheers for the reply it is for greenlaning I'm after

As naff as it is I use Google maps on my phone, live traffic allegedly but no camera location like I used to have on the old tom tom.

Roads - NavMII - it's free (or you can spend a miniscule amount on removing the ads) but uses Open Maps and is MUCH more up to date than the usual Garmin / TomTom offerings.

Less obvious mapping - I use OS maps, yep, the paper copy in conjunction with knowing how to use them. I appreciate that's NOT for everyone, however, iDevices rely on cellular information for their triangulation and are VERY inaccurate in reduced phone signal areas. The reality is, my off road stuff over the last couple of years hasn't been used extensively lol.

There are a number of options routes that you could go down to connect an external Bluetooth NMEA GPS receiver though, although I've never REALLY used them. You're welcome to give my Nokia BT receiver a pop though, I haven't used it for a couple of years.

Give NavMii a shot, allows users to insert live data including cameras and road works, etc. I found Google Maps to munch battery life on both my old iPhone and my new LG G4
